Joerg,
<p>
That sounds like the French game described in the ECV as Djambi -- you
can find some information on the Internet if you search under that name,
including a (French) retailer who apparently still sells it. The
inventor's name is Jean Anesto.
<p>
There's an extensive page in French on the game at:

Has anyone archived the chess variant 'Schach des Macchiavelli' published in the beginning of the 80ies in the german alternative newspaper 'die tageszeitung' (taz)? I remember the following facts: It was a 4 player variant on a non-checkered square board. The central field was special: If your royal piece was placed there, you had additional moves after every other player's moves. Captured pieces are left as corpses on the board. They could be moved only by a special unit, the nekromobil, which was unable to capture. Any hints are welcome. --J'org Knappen
